My biggest question to the surgeon is how many have they done in their career. I was advised it’s all about their experience and you want a surgeon that has done thousands of these. The other question is what is the actual procedure and the risk factors. What specifically is the surgery doing (Removal of tumor, thyroid, any lymph nodes, etc)? As far as post surgery from my experience it depends on the actual results of all of the biopsies they will do after tissue removal. I wish you good luck.
